The Majority Of My Background Is Multi-camera Format, Which Is Very Broad And A Very Arch Perception Of Reality. Whereas Single Camera Tends To Be More Truthful And A Little More Intimate Of A Medium. Friends Was An Education In Intelligent Comedic Banter; In Intelligent Vernacular. It Was An Education In Scene Study. It Was An Education In Group Dynamic. I Came Out Of There With A Masters Degree In Comedy.

I'm Not In A Rush To Do Anything. And I Wouldn't Say I Pick And Choose. When It Comes To Producers Picking People For Roles I Don't Think It's Between Me And Tom Cruise, Do You Know What I Mean?

Is It Better To Strive For Success As A Self-representing Artist Or Try To Get Your Feet Wet In The Gallery World? That Is Such A Common Question These Days Among Artists.

As An Actor, The Biggest Compliment You Can Get, In My Book Is For Someone To Believe That You're The Character.

I Am Not Bisexual. I Am Not Gay. I Have Never Had Sex With Men.

Having Kids Has Been Great For Me. I Have Two Beautiful Step- Kids, As Well As My Own New Daughter. They've Really Helped Me To Keep My Feet Firmly On The Ground, And Life Is Good. I Feel Like I'm The Luckiest Guy Here.

People Call Me Joey All The Time. I Take It As A Compliment. There's No Point In Correcting Them. But I'm Much More Even-keeled And Subdued And Relaxed Than Joey Tribbiani.

Work To Me Has Become Kind Of A Hobby. I Was A Part Of Something That Gave Me Financial Independence And The Rent Is Paid. Now It's Just About Projects That Turn Me On.

When There's Writing That You Really Trust, It's Very Freeing As An Artist.

I Don't Like Producing. It's A Lot Of Meetings You Sit Through That Amount To Nothing.

I Remember When My Daughter, Marina, Was Born. The Second I Laid Eyes On Her, I Was In Love, And I Had Never Felt That Way Before. I Couldn't Believe It.

I Really Like The Half-hour Comedy. I Really Do. I Know People That Are In Movies All The Time And They, You Know, They Don't See Their Families As Much. And That Takes Its Toll Over Time.

My Favorite Character On Friends Was Joey, Because We're Both Actors. I Always Thought That Was So Cool.

You Can't Be Funny If You Don't Have Good Material.

But I'm Kind Of Spoilt When It Comes To Comedy. I Was On 'friends', Which Was One Of The Funniest Things On Television.

The Phone's Not Ringing Off The Hook, But That's Ok By Me. I Feel Very Fortunate, Work To Me Has Become A Kind Of Hobby.

Everyone In My Family Used To Work With Some Kind Of Tool In Their Hands Every Day. That's What We Do. That's What I Did Before I Got Into Acting.

I Keep Waiting For The Roof To Cave In. I Was Raised To Follow The Golden Rule, You Know, Treat People The Way You Wish To Be Treated. That's Kind Of The Way I Live My Life. Maybe Someone Up There Likes Me For That.

This Whole Acting Thing Was Always Just For Me And Was Always An Absolute Shot In The Dark. If It Didn't Pan Out, I Had My Hammer And Tool Belt, Banging Nails Again Tomorrow If I Had To.

You Always Question People's Intentions. That May Be A Combination Of Having Money, Having Fame, And Being A Little Older.

The More Cynical You Become, The Better Off You'll Be.
